1 person found it helpfulNov 18th, 2016If fruits can be fluffy, they are in this wine. Blackberries, dark cherries, dry plum, creamed raspberries, some strawberries, tea, coffee, underbrush, dry brown soil, dry pebbles, rich black soil, dry florals, grilled meats, bright acidity and long juicy dark fruit finish. Of the wines so far, this one is the most approachable.
